[linux-dvb] UPDATE: Pinnacle PCTV Sat driver (experimental) updated



Hello everyone,

today the PCTV Sat driver in the linux-dvb cvs has been updated.
Major changes:
- does not contain the 2.4.2 bttv driver anymore
- no need to patch the bttv driver anymore
- works with linux kernel 2.4.18, should work with (almost) all 2.4.x

To download:
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@linuxtv.org:/cvs/linuxtv login
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@linuxtv.org:/cvs/linuxtv co \
-r experimental-pinnacle DVB

To compile:
cd DVB/driver
make (if you get compile errors, please mail me...)

To run:
./ins (NOT make insmod, this will try to load the siemens dvb driver, which
       will fail)

To use:
e.g.
dvbstream -o -ps -f 12110 -p h -s 27500 2401 2402 | mplayer -cache 2048 -
(NDR3 on Astra 19.2E)

To unload:
./unins

Further information:
some files in DVB/driver/pctv

Debugging:
Modules pctv.o and cx24110.o use the insmod parameter 'debug=1',
bt878.o uses 'bt878_debug=1'
Beware, your system log will fill very quickly.

Best regards,

Peter Hettkamp
